Hi,

I have decided it is time to sell my car and look for a new project. It has been a pleasure to own and drive, not to mention an awesome experience having a car with this much performance...

Full details of the car can be found below. As you can imagine, there is a massive list of mods, everything has been done properly using top quality jap, or australian parts.

GENERAL

As you can see, alot of top quality parts have gone into this car. I would hate to add up the total cost, but it would be well over 30k on top of the original car. The car can be driven around very easily as a daily, and then when provoked, comes alive to leave all but the best of other cars in its wake. The torque off boost is beautiful, it is so nice to drive. The car is very reliable, even the aircon works A1. Have taken it on long driving trips, and had no problems.

The car has been very well looked after. Always warmed up and cooled down, washed and polished regularly, and serviced with synthetic oils every 5000kms. Has only been used as a daily/weekend car. All work has been done to a very high standard. It is still the original paint, and as such is not perfect, having some chips, scratches and those seemingly unavoidable small carpark dents, but overall it presents very well. It spends the bulk of the time sitting in the garage, and gets a drive every couple of weeks to keep everything in A1 condition.

I am not desperate to sell, so please don't send through lowball figures. No test pilots. If i don't get reasonable money, it can just remain in the garage, and i will continue to enjoy it into the future.

May be interested in swaps with cash adjustment - ideally for an Series 8 RX7 RS, or possibly for an S15 preferably with the factory aero kit.

Looking for a quick sale at $14800 neg.

Have a look at the attached photos. The car is located in Central West NSW, about 2.5hrs drive from Sydney.

Please contact me initially via PM, and we can take it from there.

Cheers,

Rob

Car is Now SOLD SOLD SOLD

Thanks for all the interest guys, much appreciated.

After almost 10 years of Skyline ownership, its now time to move on, possibly to a Series 8 RX7, or possibly normality (argh banish the thought).

Big thank you to SAU, for providing an awesome resource during this time, and all the best to the SAUians.

Seeya, cheers,

Rob

    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
    • Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.
    • Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5
    • Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
